They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, but as luck has it the one I took was worth much more. Especially a kiss between two lovers, a kissed shared by real love pounding within the walls of your veins. But that's how this all started, just a simple touch of mine against his, changed the course of my wretched life. You can never truly tell how someone feels until you've pressed your lips against theirs. A small spark between two people. You see, the picture I took was a kiss between two people that shared the passion I've always dreamed of. I have to admit though, I've kissed only one person like that before, and that was with a man I barely knew.
A photographer, famous by accident begins to rethink her fame. Taken back into the past by a familiar face she starts seeing her future drifting into a new direction.

Instagram ▷ Kian Lawley
@KianLawley requests to follow you She never thought she would love anyone like him. Never thought she would actually meet him. Until one day, when he commented under her photo on instagram. You could say Instagram sort of saved her life. Maybe made her life better. Yeah, she had friends and her love of photography, but meeting him made it better. It made her change and open up her eyes to different possibilities. But a relationship comes with hardships. Maybe those hardships turn people insane. Maybe not. Maybe it makes the people want to find each other again. To find each other after two years of heart break. But it wasn't her fault that she had people who she couldn't trust.

The Other Side Of The Lens
"That was weird, but I can't stop my heart beating ten times faster than it should be. Laying down on the bed I face away from the bathroom door not wanting him to look at me. I pull the white cover up to my nose and look at the wall. I hear the bathroom door open and footsteps reach closer to the bed. The covers are being moved behind me as Mateo gets ready to sleep. I reach up to turn off the lap on my nightstand, and when I do we're left in the dark abyss of my room. Mateo's arm wraps itself around my waist and pulls me back into his hard chest. He gently lifts my head up and puts it back down onto his bicep. I take in a shaky breath and close my eyes deciding it is best to just sleep. Feeling his breath on the crown of my head, I'm more relaxed than I was before and start feeling sleepier by the second. But before sleep overtakes my mind. I hear Mateo mutter something.

Falling for a Star (Complete)
I had never paid much attention to celebrity gossip or what was going on in Hollywood because that was so far from the lifestyle I lived as a poor college student, working as a barista to save up for my own house after graduation. But then, without my knowledge, my Dad submitted my name into a talk show sweepstakes to win a week with Hollywood superstar Dylan Chase, to see what it's like to live like a celebrity for a week. My Dad thought it would be the perfect chance for me to get out of Iowa, see the world and have an adventure for once. I was dreading leaving home, flying for the first time and going by myself all the way to L.A. Plus the idea of spending a week with an arrogant, rich, snobby actor that was probably the worst kind of womanizer didn't sound like my idea of fun. What I found when I got there and met Dylan was the total opposite; a man that was humble, hard working, easy to talk to, and down to earth. Spending a week in Paradise in the guest house of Dylan Chase's Malibu mansion right on the beach, attending a movie premiere on his arm, shopping on Rodeo Drive and eating at five star restaurants was like a dream come true, but sleeping in his bed and falling for a guy from a completely different world than me was never part of the plan, because him and I could never end up together.

Frozen Desire (POU Riders Book 1)
"Why is it that whenever I try to get closer to you, you always shy away from me?" Aiden asks, hurt dripping from his voice I look at him and instantly i'm filled with regret and fear. "You wouldn't understand Aiden." I say pleading with him "Try me," He challenges. "Listen," I pause. "I need you to understand that when I push you away, it's because it's the only thing I know how to do anymore." He opened his mouth to say something but she stopped him, holding her palm up like a white flag. "You need to understand that everyone else has left and my problem," I say raising my voice. "My problem is that I'm scared," "I'm scared of getting too attached to someone, until eventually, that someone has the power to control me. To end my world when they feel like it." Aidens eyes bore into mine but he doesn't say anything. "Are you attached?" He asks. I glance away and then back at him nodding "With you? Too much." I say as a tear rolls down my left cheek "I'm scared that you are going to leave." I whisper as Aiden wraps his arms around me. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••• A grumpy figure skater and a golden retriever Hockey Captain.Complete

In the middle of the ocean
I deeply inhale and after a few seconds, exhale. Sooner or later, I'll have to return. Stalling won't help. The call gave me new strengths and lifted me back up on my feet. I can't show him the consequences he made. I have to stay strong. With newfound determination, I walk back to his office. The door is still open, so I step in and close them behind me. I finally see him behind a desk, with his head enveloped in his hands. At the sound of the door, he lifts his gaze up but lowers it back down again. I almost feel sorry for him, but the alarms in my head ring, reminding me not to get tricked. He is the one, who deceived me first. I lift my head up high and loudly start to introduce myself, formally addressing him. "Hello, I am Mia Rose, your new assistant," and extend my hand. He looks at me surprised and his smile turns into a gentle one. I think I see a speck of sadness in his eyes, but my attention is drawn to his hand. "Hello, I'm Mark Adams, a professional photographer. Nice to meet you," and shakes my hand. I notice he addresses me formally as well. His handshake is strong but still gentle. I feel like he doesn't want to let go, but soon does and sits back in his chair.Complete
Letter for you (Book I)
I never told her. Not because I didn't love her, I did. But because I didn't know how to say it without ruining everything we already were. So I loved her in quiet ways. The way I looked at her when she wasn't watching. Through the smiles that said more than my mouth ever could. Through the photos I took of her-little moments of beauty she never saw in herself. On the back of each picture, I wrote her a note. A thought. A memory. A truth I was too scared to speak aloud. Then she left. One accident. One plane ticket. Five years of silence and I waited. I waited because some people only happen to you once. I thought when she came back, maybe we'd have another chance. But fate doesn't care about hope. When she returned, it was with an arranged marriage to Nathan. My best friend. A good man. One I couldn't bring myself to hate. Nathan said the words I never could. I was ready to stay silent again-until I saw her eyes. And so I gave her the pictures. Not words. Not a speech. Just memories. And on the back, a quiet confession I'd written for no one but her. This isn't the story of who got her. It's about the one who never found the words. Unspoken feelings. The one who collects memories but never tries to say the words. This is the story of Carl Salvador. Book I: Letter For You Book II: I love you in every unspoken way Book III: Life after lifetimeComplete
